Congratulations! Your Rack Jack will provide you with years of
trouble-free service—please take a minute to review these
assembly and use instructions. Estimated assembly time is less
than 20 minutes. You only have to do this once!
Step One—Assembly
Mount the winch to the bottom of the boom (figure 1) - this is
the hardest part! You will need a 1/2” open end or box end
wrench for this installation. Put one of the supplied flange nuts
in the end of your 1/2” wrench as shown in figure 2. Position the
flange nut inside the base of the boom tube (the hole furthest in
the tube) and insert one of the supplied 5/16-18 x 3/4” bolts
through the top winch hole and finger tighten. (Figure 3). Now
attach the other bolt (though the winch) and flange nut (inside
the boom) and attach it to the boom tube and tighten both bolts
securely. Now attach the winch handle to the winch.

Put the 3/8-16 x 2-3/4” bolt through the “U bracket” assembly
and tighten the 1/2” cap nut ONLY until the bolt face is even
with the nut (Figure 4). Unlock the winch ratchet and pull the
cable out so that it will be long enough to reach the end of the
boom. Put the cable over the pulleys and attach the pulleys
with the 5/16 x 7/8” pins and MAKE SURE to secure the cotter
pins as shown in Figure 5. Your Rack Jack is ready for use!
